How to turn on loans in a game library
Make every game in the library available for loan at once and check the rules: how many games per person, how long a loan lasts and whether a QR code is needed.
11 steps with screenshots of the app
If your game library was browse-only, or you loaded the games without marking them for loan, you can turn on lending for all of them at once. Then it's worth checking the rules before anyone takes a game home. It works the same for your club's game library and for a Meeplay's: you open a Meeplay's from its page, with the Game library button.
- Have the Meeplay app installed and be logged in to your account.
- Manage an organization on Meeplay. If you don't have one yet, follow the How to create your organization guide first.
- Have a game library with games. If you don't have one yet, follow How to load your club's game library one game at a time.
In each screenshot, what you need to tap is outlined in yellow and pointed out with an arrow.
